OPPO announced several rather popular foldable smartphones thus far. OPPO may even be looking to expand its smartphone portfolio this year. What do we mean by that? Well, read on.
OPPO may expand its foldable smartphone portfolio this year
A mysterious OPPO PHN110 smartphone was mentioned in a new report. Digital Chat Station, a tipster, says that OPPO is reportedly developing that device. He did not specifically mention what device this is, but… it possibly is not the Find N3.
Digital Chat Station did share some specs of this smartphone. He mentioned that the device will have a display with a screen resolution of 2440 x 2268, which hints at a main foldable display. That display will also offer a 120Hz refresh rate.
This is a higher screen resolution than what the OPPO Find N2 offers. The Find N2’s main display has a screen resolution of 1792 x 1920. This could mean that the Find N3 will feature a larger display, that OPPO simply decided to considerably boost the sharpness, or… that a larger variant of the Find N2/N3 is coming.
This device will have a larger display and a larger battery, it seems
Any of those could be true, but we’ll go with the last option, if we have to choose. The display is not the only reason, though. The tipster also said that this phone will feature a 4,805mAh battery (3,295mAh + 1,510mAh). That is a considerably larger battery than what the Find N2 offers. That phone has a 4,200mAh unit. Needless to say, this is another hint at a larger phone.
A 50-megapixel main camera will also be a part of the package, as will Hasselblad’s branding and expertise. We’re not sure when this phone will launch, but it’ll likely arrive later this year.
OPPO will, hopefully, keep releasing compact foldable phones, though. The OPPO Find N and N2 were quite popular in China, even though OPPO didn’t release them globally. It would be nice to see the Find N3 with a similar form factor, but with global availability.
It is possible the device Digital Chat Station is the OPPO Find N3, but it’s larger, of course. We do hope OPPO will stick with the size of the OPPO Find N and N2, though, and that we’ll get two differently-sized smartphones to compete with the Galaxy Z Fold series.
